Read the below passage from Collections “Quilt of a Country” that addresses our theme of Identity that we have been focusing on this week. Complete one of the levels below.

Level 1: Describe another community that you are a part of, different from the one described below, using 3 to 5 words.
Level 2: Describe another community that you are a part of, different from the one described below, using 3 to 5 sentences.
Level 3: Describe another community that you are a part of, different from the one described below, using 3 to 5 sentences. What creates this identity? Provide evidence from your experiences.
America was built of bits and pieces like crazy quilts.
Patriotism is taking pride in the unlikely way we throw all of us together in a country and still are able to call it by one name. When photographs of the faces of all those who died in the World Trade Center are in one place, it will be possible to trace in the skin color, the shape of the eyes and the noses, the texture of the hair, a map of the world.  These are the representatives of a nation that somehow has one spirit. When it actually works, it’s a wonder.
